Nothing like having homegrown tomatoe marinara sauce
In the freezer. Alot of different meal dishes to choose from. Since the age of Google on your cell phone my cooking got Alot better. Stuffed bell peppers and tomatoe basil pizza and chillbeans coming up next.
Once the tomatoes are boiled for one minute and the skins are removed and the tomatoes are stewed
For a couple of hours with garlic onions and herbs and seasoning the work is mostly done.

But a first time for home grown tomatoes 🍅 basil garlic
One lid did not seal can't wait to add to onions garlic saut?ing in olive oil for whole wheat pasta dish.going with Ramada cheese and maybe add one of my canned tuna. Stay tuned 😎 you might say a filler for the belly and between fish reports
This is only the second vegetable garden I have planted.
Two things I will do different next year if I plant 🪴 again will be start seedlings earlier I still have green tomatoes on the vine and if your going to germinate 2 seeds make sure you kill the weaker one which I did not causing over crowding and a lot of chopping back from over growth also pull tomato suckers sooner.

I'll probably make a marinara sauce so jars are fuller.
Or grind up tomatoes better. They were basically raw and blanched in boiling water for one minute and some of the skin removed. Skin on or off is not really that big of a deal to me. But taste is everything. I better have at least one good tasting meal every day. I see why Gordon ramsay blows his ass when it taste bad. But I have alot of respect for him because he exposed all the dead sharks hiding on roof tops waiting to sell for shark fin soup, in a TV show.

And eating half as much as I used to, a good tasting meal, is everything in the day. Shitty meal Shitty day you might say. 🙃
